From camping and traveling to good food, photography, and fun, my channel is all about stuff I enjoy! I enjoy being a life-long learner and explorer ... with a great awe and appreciation of the tallest mountains to the smallest flowers and insects! Thanks for finding me in this little corner of the internet, and I'd be happy to have you follow along on my adventures.
Cumberland Island with Sisters on the Fly
Members of Sisters on the Fly ( the nation's largest outdoor women's adventure group www.sistersonthefly.com ) camped for three nights on Cumberland Island off the coast of Southeast Georgia in May 2023.
Cumberland Island National Seashore offers abundant wildlife including feral horses, varieties of shore birds, turtles, deer, armadillo, possums, turkeys, wild hogs, alligators and more. It is a nature lover's paradise with miles of easy trails through old maritime forests full of Spanish oaks and a wide long stretch of undeveloped beach. There's also plenty of history to be discovered and explored.

Tent Camping comfort with Lost Horizon camping mattress
Переглядів 939Рік тому
I'm preparing for a 4-night tent camping event to Cumberland Island, Georgia, in May 2023, and testing out a new camping mattress by Lost Horizon*. For Cumberland Island, everything needs to fit in my wagon so that I can haul it to the campground, which is about half of a mile from the boat ferry dock. To learn more about the Lost Horizon mattress, or order your own, you can find it on Amazon r...
Ecuador and The Galápagos Islands with Gate 1 Travel {Sisters on the Fly}

I enjoyed the first real use of my passport by traveling with members of "Sisters on the Fly" to Ecuador and the Galápagos Islands with Gate 1 Travel. It was incredible! There were 9 of us "Sisters on the Fly" and three other couples on the tour, so it was a small group and we all got along wonderfully. Gate 1 Travel was a 5-star experience and everything was flawless. The guides, our drivers, ...

Solo Kayak at George L Smith State Park ... (background sounds, relaxing)
Переглядів 5832 роки тому
I decided to take my kayak (Vibe Yellowfin 100) to George L Smith State Park near Swainsboro, Georgia, on a Tuesday morning, which was great because I was the only one on the water! The lake is over 400 acres and has three marked kayak trails. The park has wonderful campsites and hiking trails too. I didn't add music or words to this video.... only the natural ambient background sounds (besides...
LavaBox Portable Campfire unboxing and setup

While looking for a SMALL portable propane fire pit for my camping excursions, I just happened to come across the LavaBox, a very cool portable campfire in an ammo box! It was invented by Josh Thurmond who is the one making the boxes in Colorado. He and his wife are the two main people in the company, which is relatively new .... just in the last year or two. Here is their website ... fireanyti...
Solo Car Camping at Blythe Island Park
Переглядів 13 тис.2 роки тому
A glimpse into my first adventure "car camping" on my own at Blythe Island Regional Park in Brunswick, Georgia. I was the only camper during my two-night stay in the Primitive Section of the campground (no water or electric). The primitive sites were $19 per night. The park is well known for its assortment of bunnies that live around the park, mainly near the office. So cute!! They also have a ...
Squirrel Picnic Lunch

6M Quad Door Bell Tent from Boutique Camping
Переглядів 11 тис.4 роки тому
Thanks to some Christmas money from my boyfriend, I purchased the 6M Quad Door Bell Tent from Boutique Camping in January 2020. The first time I set it up on our private land and it stayed there for three months. It did GREAT during lots of rain and high winds, although I was quite worried about it. One door frame pole did bend during one storm, but it was easily straightened out and is just fi...

I just love how you converted your bed so you still have a sitting area. Your trailer is perfect. 🤩🥰💕
I just noticed your truck is a Ford Ranger. I have a 2019 Ranger and I was wondering it tows your camper. This is the model of camper I want to buy. Thanks.
Great video, and great energy
Love your camper / camp setup !!! To the point , l love the fact that you're a real woman !! You showed your camper in actual livin state !!! Safe Travels 😊
I'm so impressed! I've done a lot of camping at every level, but this setup suits my current life. I have a Sports Cove hatch canopy, but adding the decorative flags to keep from tripping over the stakeout lines is brilliant. This is such a well thought out setup! Now I have to subscribe in appreciation.
I might put some fairy lights on them. Either way, people always trip over the lines even if you have red flags on them. Oblivious.
Is this 6m x 4m with 4 doors?
what is the burn time on a 5lb tank?
How have you found the quality? I've been thinking about buying this camper but there are some scary reviews about lots of issues and leaks in these units.
Aloha from Maui, No bunnies hopping about here, but got a cousin Napier Sport awning, & love it….. Great job on your video!!! Enjoyable to watch…. And if a picture says a thousand words, your video said a million….. Aloha!!!!
Really nice to see how you showed how you are ticked out with all of the odds and ends you bring for camping! So often people show an empty trailer! Thank you! Happy travels!
I love Gate 1 Travel! I am going to look into this fun trip. Thank you for sharing.
Where did u find the chandalier?
Found it on Amazon and I purchased battery operated candles separately on Amazon. I’ve had this chandelier 3 years and looks like it’s out of stock but I bet there’s another similar.

Hello! Nice set up! I have the same color of clam quick shelter, escape 11.5 x 11.5. I am looking to buy a wind panel that has a window. The brown panel that clam offers does not work for the escape model that I have. May i know where you bought your red panels? Thank you.
Hey! Yes, the red and blue panels for the Clam Escape tents have the windows. I got mine on Amazon … CLAM Quick-Set Wind and Sun Panel Attachment for Escape Sport Screen Shelter Canopy Tent with Carrying Bag, Accessory Only, Red (3 Pack) a.co/d/4sO2GH6
You and your Little Guy Mini Max are both Adorable. 🤗💕
Is that the Lavabox? Do you still have & like it?
Hey! Yes, good eye! I do still have the Lavabox as my propane fire pit and I do like it. My favorite parts are how small it is, that it has a lid, and that it's lite and easy to carry. The only negative is that the fire will steadily get smaller over time and I have to readjust the knob going to the propane tank. Not a deal breaker, but it does have trouble keeping a steady flame height. This is one of the original models, so that may be improved by now. But I love it when I'm camping by myself. When there's a group of friends, I still prefer a traditional wood-burning campfire though.
@@AllisonCobb0126 what size tank have you been using with it?
@@MrGottaGo just a standard 20 lb. one. I think that's standard. I'd like to get a smaller one but just haven't done that yet.
Thank you for putting this wonderful vlog together. I was looking for reviews for this tour and your vlog came up. Enjoyed it very much and answered a lot of my questions. I am not a swimmer, are there any other activities I can do on the snorkeling day?
You’re welcome! And thank you so much. It’s such a wonderful trip!! And yes, for those who don’t swim, they’ll drive you around in the little boat so that you can see the penguins. They’ll also take you to shore and you can see the flamingos and walk a short path down the island and see many iguanas too. The boat crew members were really wonderful! Everything was!
How bad were the bugs in May?
Love your videos Allison! Please keep them coming. I’m a new girl camper and find your videos inspiring. Thank you.
Thanks for the tour. Ive been watching a few vids on the mini max, but they are mostly empty in a showroom. I wanted to see how a mini max looks alive, and camped-in. This was perfect. Thank you
I would definitely remove the microwave too when boondocking it is a waste of space but I would put on door. I would put mirror in closet to but hang some clothes up I stead. I would fix bed up the same. I like alot of her modifications. Would do similar.
Thanks so much! And yeah, I’d love to get a matching door for the space left from the microwave.
Your wildlife shots with the zoom lens are phenomenal. I loved watching the birds on the beach. Especially the tall one and the short one. I feel like we could write an entire sitcom about those two, LOL.
Thank you! Yes, they were so funny! He was like, please, please, please. And she's saying no, no, no. Ha ha!
Love the video Allison. You did a great job capturing the essence of the island. Good work 👏👍
Thanks so much, Wendy!! I’m still a video newbie, but it’s a fun hobby. Miss you!!
Great video!!!
Thank you, Brenda! Miss ya!
Nice setup
Love your video! Love your energy I just bought mine can’t wait to get in the mail. Happy camping ⛺️
Loved watching your video! What camera did you use?
Thank you so much!! I used a Sony a6400, iPhone 13, and GoPro 11 (I think that’s right, haha).
@@AllisonCobb0126 thank you! Your photos and video were amazing! Thanks for sharing.
How did you have the chandelier from the top of the tent? I would have made the tent screen collapse in on me. Such a comfy looking mini max and so cozy.
Thank you!! The clam tent has a loop in the top center that you can hang things on. I do have to use my little step ladder to reach it though. The chandelier hangs there just fine and it’s not very heavy at all. If it were storming though, with high winds, then I’d take it down because the tent roof could collapse in high gusts.
@@AllisonCobb0126 Thank you! 💕
You have convinced me to do this! I’ve been afraid to make the commitment. Do you ever feel vulnerable camping solo? That’s the only thing that has kept me from committing.
Good for you! I don’t often camp solo, but when I do it’s typically in a regular campground so I don’t have any worries at all. However I’m also a member of “Sisters on the Fly” and that’s one of the best decisions I ever made. I’ve had SO many wonderful camping adventures since joining up. Truly you should look into it!
Lovely. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I just came across your video. I also have a Mini Max and love it - and in the tour I saw that you are a Sister on the Fly. Me too! Maybe we'll meet up someday. I'm in Missouri.
Wow, that’s fantastic!! I love meeting new sisters “in the wild”! Haha! I’m also listed on the “Sisters on the Curb” pages, so if you ever need a curb in southeast Georgia, be sure to look me up. Happy trails, Sister!!
Amazing, love the interior!
Thanks so much! It’s definitely cozy and I just love it!
I love it. Thanks for showing it. I going to one.😊
Super cute,, love your energy and the sunny feel in your camper! I really am shooting to do this for a while!! Thx
Thanks so much! I just love the camper too! I’ve put it up until the fall now because it’s just too hot camping in the summer and I have other trips planned too, but already missing it. I may have to sneak it out for just a couple more getaways. Haha!
That's a nice camper setup! Feels right at home over the road in there. I will have to check this campground out. I live about 3 hours away from it. The sites look huge! The sites are really small in the smoky mountains.
Amazing i love it
Great vid!!Did you ever compare the little guy max with your Mini? It appears there is little storage sacrifice and much more tow friendly w your Mini??
The Max does have more storage but I’m typically just camping 3-4 days at a time. This Mini is my first camper, so I wanted it to be small, and a requirement was the bathroom. It’s SO easy for me to pull around. I fit perfectly in two regular parking spaces, so that’s easy. Plus I love that the Mini has the keder rail on the edge of it. I have a large awning that slides in the keder rail and extends the living space. I also have the smaller visor I can use. The “awning” on the Max is terrible and small. But the extra space inside the Max is nice. I’d really only want that if I was sharing the camper with another person. I prefer to be outside anyway when camping. The Mini is perfect for me!
What size truck do you pull your camper with? Nice job on the video.
I pull it with my boyfriend’s Ford Raptor most of the time and occasionally with my Ford Escape (has tow package rated for 3500).
It's so cute. Thanks for sharing.
I love it!!
Thank you for showing your camper being lived in! I've been looking at smaller campers and I'm having a hard time visualizing how everything will fit in there. I love it!
Awesome review I get mine next week and I can’t wait
Hope you got your Lavabox and are loving it too! It’s definitely my “go to” when I want to use propane.
I like it alot, I didn't think a camper this small would be so amazing just for my dog and myself. Thanks for a great video. I made sure I subscribed to your channel.
Thanks so much, Bob! Happy travels!
@@AllisonCobb0126 I bought that same clam shell and I love it to death. Thanks for the inspiration.
Your video interested me because on the mini max... which I love, but you totally won me over when you pulled out that chandelier! Beautiful photography and super nice camp site. Camping in the wind is definitely no fun. Thanks for the tour!
Thank you so much! And yes, I always get comments in the campground when people see the chandelier! Haha!!
Excellent video Allison, very professionally done! What month where you there?
Thanks so much! We went in mid October.
Thank you for posting! I’m going on this trip in March… can you recommend luggage? Clothing? Ty
Sorry Tracey, just reading comments finally! Ha! I know you’re so excited planning your trip! What fun!! We tried to pack light so we wouldn’t have to worry about checked bags at the airport. It was tight, but doable. They are so close to the equator that the temperature really doesn’t change much. It was warm during the days… shorts weather …. And cooler in the evenings. We stayed in Santa Cruz which is further up in elevation so there was fog and rain almost daily. Closer to sea level, it would be sunny and warm. Bring cash or a debit card. That’s the only thing I wish I’d have brought more of. Ha! Credit card fees are high and some small businesses don’t want to take cards.
Thank you so much for sharing your incredible experience. I leave in one week for my Galapagos adventure with Gate 1. Your video answered my concerns about what to wear. Boots, sneakers or water shoes. Yikes. It looks like all three may work.
Oh my gosh ... enjoy every second!! I hope your trip is just as incredible as mine was! I'd love to go back again one day and spend more time there. Fun!!!
So inspiring! Home away from home. I enjoyed watching your experience
My girlfriend got that exact mattress and loves it!😁
Haha, small world!!😂 Well if she loves this one, then click the link in the description above and order her the child size cot for Christmas, while it’s on sale, cause that one will fit much better in her vehicle for car camping… and it’s much cheaper than a Ford Expedition!!😂😂😉❤️
Great video. 👍
Thanks, Brenda!!😊
Never heard of it. Great video. Interesting concept. Thanks for posting
